As a long time supporter...

[Isandula]

This was one woeful, dam terrible game for us. Yes truly dreadful...players stuffing up when it counted. Too many behinds. Crucial players doing a "missing person" poster. It was a sad day. I haven't posted in here for many, many years but I still love my eagles just as much. I will still after this game. Its a hard thing to take, especially living in Tassie and being surrounded by bloody Tassie hawk fans EVERYWHERE. I will survive and still support the team. I think they tried to hard and became clumsy, which includes some players. I hope this is a lesson they come back from bigger and better!

We are a great club and will get another shot. I live in Sydney and have a bunch of grubs giving me shit who follow nrl and don't even like afl. Get drunk, cry do what you gotta do I'm confident we will be back next year having another crack at it

have to lose 1 before you can win the next 7

At the end of the day we had 3 bad performances this year, just sucks one of those was on GF day!

Still can't believe we managed to do what we did with this list.

I'll always bleed blue & gold!!!

Bring on 2016

Holy moly, it's Issy!

We had 4 bad games - freo, suns, crows and hawks.

Need to get back - fix up the holes that allow rebound goals. If the team is determined enough they can do it, still a young team.

Add North.

Haha I still exist!

Our Prelim against North last week was horrible game too.

We were just lucky they ran out of legs.

We dished up the same shit as the first half last week.

 

[Isandula]

We were lucky last week, they nearly had us and probably done a better job. Who knows, better accuracy guys!

Which Sydney-based teams are playing tomorrow?

Looking back, I am completely shell-shocked that the web led us to a GF.

It's nothing new its just protecting the space where the ball is likely to go. It's not like Simmo invented it this year, we just had to play that way because we could not match up 1v1 due to our lack of KPD. Our defence was outstanding all year against all the odds, it was the mids and our hunger for the contest that let the whole team down today.

Yeah let's not forget our main two key defenders were an injured unfit forward who's learning to play as a backman, and a running half back/wingman who's had to play as a KPD all year.

The 'web' is overstated - we have just had a number of backmen play out of their ****ing skins all season, day in day out, and maybe our midfielders got a bit reliant on it.

Yep throw that all together and you have to say that this is one of the most almighty efforts of any team in recent memory.
